Bubble bubble, toil and trouble,
Beware the Ides of March.
Little did I know that the rain in Houston fell not on the plain
But flooded it.
I was stuck for two hours in my car.
When I finally waded my way back to my apartment, I heard the water flooding into this piece.
The Ides of March
Words and Music by Anne Ku
4/4 time in C minor
| 1. | Winter
goes in the rain down the street to the main road
Flooding all you can see from the sidewalks of Houston People sit waiting inside their cars or out in the cold They can't see the end where the traffic begins or ends.
|
| 2. | Soon
the sun starts to linger behind with the moonlight
Setting reluctantly, returning in the morning Through the clouds it shines brighter than all the stars in the skies It fights with the wind for the time in the day of dawning.
|
| 3. | Sometimes
it's cloudy all day
Sometimes the wind may blow strong One never knows for how long Anything that will stay Or it will go away One more time, one more chance. |
